i agree
but take a look at this, theres no way the little bit of shimmer a halide gives will look nearly as good as this Mr.Xs old 150g. the way the corals glow is just so [moderator edit] good looking

Any actinics and most 20k 250/400 watt bulbs will do that. Where are the colorful SPS? That is the true test as they are the hardest to keep colored.

That looks like a maricultured piece. Lets see the growth/color progression shots of that coral. Maricultured pieces look awesome when then first come in under any lights, but it is also very hard to keep the color under any lights.
